Congress to Support Bloggers’ Rights
By Jane • May 6th, 2007 • Category: Publishing News • •There is a bill being proffered in both branches of Congress which would provide shields for bloggers who have anonymous sources.
“The intent is that bloggers who are regularly involved in newsgathering and reporting, within the scope of that definition, would be entitled to the privilege,” Rep. Rick Boucher, one of the House bill’s primary sponsors, said in a Friday telephone interview with CNET News.com.

Jane is a long time romance reader whose passion is, you guessed it, reading. Jane also does not like to talk about herself in the third person, but apparently this is the way that this biography thing works (although in a true biography, someone else would be writing this blurb). Anyway, currently Jane loves urban fantasy authors Patricia Briggs and Ilona Andrews. She's really excited about this year's crop of historicals including Joanna Bourne's The Spymaster's Lady and Sherry Thomas' Private Arrangements and the upcoming Loretta Chase Her Scandalous Ways.
She's looking for a good contemporary author. Email her with a recommendation!
